Literary analysis uncovers the true topic of Gawain's departure in Sir Gawain and The Green Knight, suggesting new interpretations.
Revives a previously rejected solution to the 'missing day' of Sir Gawain and The Green Knight (lines 1020-3) and proposes an emendation to lines 1046-51 so that Gawain and the host are no longer discussing something that did not happen and could not have done so (leaving King Arthur's court in the middle of the holidays) but instead the actual topic at hand, Gawain's need to depart this castle, now.
